COMICS! WE LOVE ‘EM! And so does Alejandro Jodorowsky, and on this episode of the world’s finest Jodorowsky-themed podcast JodoWOWsky we’re going deep on three of Jodo’s most impressive comic works of the 90s and 2000s. We start by checking out his post-Incal collaboration with the legendary Jean “Moebius” Giraud: the mind-bending satire MADWOMAN OF THE SACRED HEART! Next up are two collaborations with the ALSO legendary François Boucq, starting with his epic violent western BOUNCER, and finishing with the playful collection of fables THE SHADOW’S TREASURE. All that and all of the latest Jodorowsky news. Who could ask for anything more? Enjoy!
We were working in the lab, late one night.. recording a brand new HALLOWEEN HORROR PODCAST SPECIAL featuring two recent horror(ish) features to put HEAD TO HEAD! We start with a conversation about some of our recent favorite (and least favorite) horror films before moving onto a discussion on the twisty crime horror STRANGE DARLING from 2023 and ending with the moody British horror DADDY’S HEAD from 2024! CHECK IT OUT!
On a returning HOW DO YOU DO, FELLOW KIDS? (the world’s finest Steve Buscemi-themed podcast) we’re looking at the stylized 90s crime caper THINGS TO DO IN DENVER WHEN YOU’RE DEAD, featuring a cast full of recognizable faces: including Andy Garcia, Christopher Lloyd, William Forsythe, Bill Nunn, Treat Williams, Christopher Walken, Fairuza Balk and – of course – Steve Buscemi as “Mr. Shhh”. But is it just a Tarantino rip-off, or does it have more to offer? LET’S FIND OUT! We also check out the latest Buscemi news because WHY THE HECK NOT?
CUT THE CRAP! We’re post-American excursion and post-Lo Wei scraps and things are about to POP OFF with the first of the Five Lucky Stars series WINNERS & SINNERS starring Sammo Hung, Richard Ng, Charlie Chin, Stanley Fung and John Shum. Oh, and Jackie Chan is here as well, reconnecting with his “big brother” (and Yuen Biao in a tiny part) for the first time in years and transitioning to martial arts/comedy hybrids with higher production values and bigger stunts. This one might lean a bit TOO heavily on the comedy, but you get roller skating stunts, car stunts, and some dynamite action to whet your appetite for what’s to come. Enjoy!
Jeremy Saulnier (MURDER PARTY, BLUE RUIN, GREEN ROOM) returns after a lengthy hiatus with the long-in-development Netflix original revenge movie REBEL RIDGE! Starring Aaron Pierre as a marine facing off against the corrupt law enforcement of a small Louisiana town, it’s not quite the FIRST BLOOD-riff that the initial trailers suggested, but its mix of crooked cops, a righteous cause, racial politics and a dynamite performance in the lead creates something very special. On this episode of CINEMA SMORGASBORD SELLS OUT we restrain ourselves from delving into spoilers while discussing the film, responding to some of the critiques we’ve heard since its release, and so much more. Check it out!
Michael is joined by screenwriter, podcaster and cinephile Joe Randazzo to discuss John Ford’s epic film THE SEARCHERS.

We’re back and we’re still SELLING OUT with a rare chat about a current blockbuster: the Denis Villeneuve-directed sequel DUNE: PART TWO. Following the continuing adventures of Paul Atreides and his pals on the sand-covered planet Arrakis (aka DUNE). We chat about the David Lynch (and aborted Alejandro Jodorowsky) version(s), Liam’s experience with the books, what does and doesn’t work, and whether we’re interested in more films/TV in the DUNE universe. CHECK IT OUT!
After a less-then-fruitful experience in the US (filming THE BIG BRAWL and THE CANNONBALL RUN), Jackie returned to Hong Kong with a blank check from Golden Harvest and a chip on his shoulder. The result was plenty if bumps, bruises and 1982’s DRAGON LORD, which serves as a transitionary period between the old-school kung fu films of his past and the stunt-heavy films (with higher production value) that would define his work in the 1980s. In this episode of WE DO OUR OWN STUNTS we break down the good and bad of DRAGON LORD, its two cuts, and the two bravura sequences within. LISTEN!
